Reach for the stars, and you'll hit the roof.
This was the event that I had planned. The one I didn't get to.

So, if you've played Super mario 64, you know where this stems from.

In tha mansion in Italicus, something crazy is afoot. When the group steps in, there's nothing but huge paintings on the walls, both up and downstairs. In each painting, something is wrong. Something that doesn't belong. I hadn't decided on the particulars of this as of yet. But it's simple things. Like... a group of Magcargo in the Alabaster Mountains, or the Fog Marsh with no fog, or whatever. The goal of this, of course, would be to leap into the paintings, be somehow transported to that part of the map, and fix whatever is out of place. It was gonna be like... 4 or 5 paintings to fix, but that was adjustable, too, when I started it and saw how it was going.

In the end, it's basically some crazy lonely ghost that has this... or, you could change it to a mean one, if you'd like. Either way would work. Afterwards, ghosts still inhabit the mansion, but to a less meddlesome degree thanks to the OME and their presence and monitoring of the place.

That was basically it.

Go for it, run towards it, dive in head first. Live life with no regrets!
Location: Italicus
Grade: II
Pay: 2,000z
Storyline: Required (Outline not yet written)
Assigned To: Cerby (Steely will be modding)
Threat: With our new base of operations in Italicus established, many things are still unknown to us... including a mansion in town. It has been keeping our soldiers on the surface awake at night, causing restlessness among the troops. Someone is needed to investigate the mansion, and find out where the sounds and apparitions are coming from that are inconveniencing our men.



There are five total paintings tat need to be 'fixed'. Three in the main room (two on either side of the main room and one at the top of the main stairs) and one in one of the east rooms and one in one of the west rooms. In addition to the five paintings that are wrong, there are other various paintings that are completely normal and do nothing.

Upon entering the mansion, something about it just feels off. Though, as long as the mansion is within sight, it constantly gives the person in question an uneasy feeling, that just gets worse the closer they get to it. Once inside, it's like your skin is crawling. Things creak and thunk but there's nothing to make the noise. Stuff like that.

Person has to figure out that the paintings are the point of the mission, that they can be 'walked into' like a door, and that they need to go in and fix them all. Not in any particular order, though. But before they do that, they need to find a paintbrush in one of the upstairs rooms, held by a weird statue of an older lady. They need the brush to fix the stuff in the paintings, if it's not possible to fix it with their Pokemon.

Painting 1: (Left Side Hall) Muskeg Marsh (Puddlelands) with no water. Player can either use a water type to make everything we again, or if they don't have one then they can figure out to use the paint brush to do it.

Painting 2: (Right Side Hall) Halcyon Forest area with an angra ursaring prowling around. Player has to defeat the bear.

Painting 3: (Left Upstairs) Corporcana with people in it. Player goes into the picture, and they all turn into ghosts that need to be defeated.

Painting 4: (Right Upstairs) Felcrest with a bright orange gym. They'll find a can of purple paint behind the gym, to repaint it with.

Painting 5: (Staircase Top) Italicus with no snow. Same as the Marsh one, they can either make snow with a Pokemon or paint it in.

Once they step out of the last painting, they'll hear a noise in the same room they got the brush from, and discover that the dude they took the brush from was the ghost! It's a lonely old Frostlass, who changes the paintings when she gets bored. Thing is, she doesn't want to leave the mansion for whatever reason. So to finish up, the player has to figure out some way to keep the ghost company, most likely by telling the ghost that if it stops freaking people out, that someone from the OME will come visit it periodically. Or! They can ask it to come to the OME, and have to battle it to catch it.



I'm still a little bit iffy about how to end it. Opinions?

I like it. Maybe make the Frosslass a bonus battle with an option to capture for the CU. Then they can/could get donation awards for that as a well.

I wasn't sure if you'd want such a rare Pokemon just... caught like that. xD But that works, yeah. *tweaks it*

We can put something on it to keep it from getting bought up.

Hiya.

Internet at the old house just exploded, not like it matters 'cause I'm not going to be here anymore after tonight.

Long story short, I can't mod this anymore. I was gonna try it tonight but after getting screamed at for half an hour over something fucking stupid has pretty much made me not give a shit about anything but trying to get my own shit tied up. Which isn't gonna happen but anyways, not the point here.

THE POINT IS:

This is how far Cerby's gotten:

-She's figured out that the brush is magic/science/whatever. (she kinda wants to keep it afterwards, which is up to you Mav, if you wanna take away the 'make shit out of thin air' part off, and just let it have infinite paint and whatever color you're thinking of)

-She's figured out that she can go into the paintings.

Now she just needs to fix the rest of the paintings and deal with the Frostlass. So I guess the rest is up to you guys. I'll try to kick in a mod when I can but I don't know when our stuff's gonna be connected so uh... yeah.
